Mark 13:8-11

English Standard Version

⁸ For ^(A)nation will rise against nation, and ^(B)kingdom against kingdom. There will be ^(C)earthquakes in various places; there will be ^(D)famines. These are but the beginning of the birth pains.

^9 (E)“But ^(F)be on your guard. For they will deliver you over to councils, and you will be beaten ^(G)in synagogues, and you will stand before ^(H)governors and ^(I)kings for my sake, ^(J)to bear witness before them. ¹⁰ And the gospel must first be proclaimed ^(K)to all nations. ¹¹ And when they bring you to trial and deliver you over, ^(L)do not be anxious beforehand what you are to say, but say ^(M)whatever is given you in that hour, ^(N)for it is not you who speak, but the Holy Spirit.
